Matchbox drums

I spent an age over at wackystuffthe other day, and what a treat it was! With nearly 1000 images to peruse, it really is a delight!

Some of the highlights include some very idyllic 1950 family postcards as well as some superbly printed labels.

Prompted by some of the matchbox labels on wackystuff I have posted a couple of cylindrical matchbox drums, of my own. These lovely little drums hold 100 matches with brightly coloured heads, all visible through the tightly fitting lids.
